A Singapore Airlines passenger got a stomach ache over someone else’s toothache.
A horrified Australian traveler Bradley Button was enjoying a meal served to him on a flight from Melbourne, Australia, to Wellington, New Zealand, Tuesday, when he encountered an unexpected crunch.
It turns out the object in his rice was a human tooth – one that wasn’t his.
“I threw my guts up,” Button told Australian Associated Press. “For the rest of the flight I was not well; just the idea of having someone else’s body part in my food is not nice.”
Bradley Button was eating rice on the flight on Tuesday when he heard a crunch and spat out what appeared to be a molar.
“For the rest of the flight I was not well, just the idea of having someone else’s body part in my food is not nice,” he told the Australian Associated Press.
He said a flight attendant was “adamant” that she needed to take the object away for testing and that it was a small rock.
“It was without a shadow of a doubt a tooth,” he added. After the discovery, Button said he was given a voucher to use on the airline’s duty-free products.
In a statement to media, Singapore Airlines acknowledged a passenger “found what appeared to be a foreign object in their meal” on flight SQ248 on Feb. 26.
“We are currently investigating this incident and have sent the object for analysis,” the statement reads. “Once the results of the analysis are known we will determine what the most appropriate course of action to take is.”
It is just the latest controversy to hit Singapore’s flag carrier — last week there was an outcry online after worried passengers discovered cameras on back seat monitors on some of the airline’s newer planes.
The airline however insisted the cameras were disabled.
